@RoyxRizaFan - I like the idea of monthly theme! For this month, may I suggest writing fanfic/drabble, etc. for FMA-board FMA Fun Fan Festival? And then next month we can set-up next month's theme? We had the Festival period extended this whole Summer, but it will end for good by this month, and this may be the last of this kind we may have on our board, so this may be the last chance to contribute.

Let me re-post Fanfic portion of the festival:

*pops back in*

Hi!

Yay for fanart recs! Thanks for sharing!

Oooh, festival time! I have a few drabbles from my new collection that I can add to that flood.

I've just put out two new RoyAi pieces(links go to fanfiction.net):

Ishvala's Land: (post-manga, slight spoilers) Mustang and Hawkeye get a chance to do something that no other Amestrian Soldier's have.

Rainy Day Blues: (set sometime after the transfer to Central, but before the encounter with Lust) Hawkeye usually enjoyed the rain, but not today.


As per the Grumman discussion. I don't think Roy has to necessarily know, even with the joke. It could be Grumman's way of trying to figure out what kind of a man Roy is. Riza might know, but only if Grumman told her. Which I think he might have, and they don't share the information with others, because of "We don't want anyone to think you're getting special treatment." or something along those lines, even if it's a "I don't want to be used against you" type of thing.

^ Welcome back, Causmicfire! Nice to see you again!

Here is one of the few scenes with Roy and Riza from FMA "Sacred Star of Milos" movie.


Also, stole from Michiyo-'s post ^^

It's one of the collaboration pics included in FMA Chronicle. This one is done by Ms. Cocoa Fujiwara.

I was reading at FMA wiki and I came across something like "Roy never sacrifices his queen in chess." May I ask where it's stated? I can't remember from manga.

And also what does that pic say,it's beautiful <3<3

My friend and I read that same thing! It's not something that's said in the manga. But apparently he does whatever he can to keep his queen from being taken, and that's probably why he's lost 90 or so games against Grumman xD

On the pick, Ms Cocoa says: "I love this scene." and " I'd love to marry Mr. Armstrong. ~Cocoa Fujiwara"
In the message above the drawing, she is congratulating the conclusion of FMA series, and she says that she is a fan of FMA and she had been following the series from the first chapter, and she liked the ending.

So a little RoyAi story!

I was in the Olive Garden the other day, and a man and a woman were being led to a table nearby. They were both in military uniforms, the man with short, dark hair, and the woman with platinum blonde hair pulled into an updo...

My first words were, "SEE? Roy and Riza ARE real!!!"

Made my day.

Oooh... Awesome pic!

RoyxRizaFan--I'm tempted to say "pics or it didn't happen", but that would be stalker-ish, and I believe you. Awesome!

This thread's been very-quiet-bordering-on-silent for too long, IMO, but... I don't really have anything to contribute at the moment.

I don't know if anyone has noticed those 'grab my' memes that are dominating the internet right now, but I ended up making one for Roy/Riza XD (Warning, spoilers for the end of Brotherhood!)

Hope you like it!

@ jacksparrow - Oh my gosh, I didn't even think of that! XD Probably could have snapped a cell pic qithout being noticed, but yeah, still a little stalker-ish lol

^ LOL, RoyxRizaFan, that's cute and funny!

I wish I could draw something cute & funny like that. But since I don't have any artistic talent, nor drawing skills.... here is some pic I found.. just to get the thread going. xp

I don't remember seeing it before. (The pic was on this site)

@RoyxRizaFan: That drawing is great, I really like it!

@Tombow: I have that pic on my computer, along with many other awesome Royai pics.

And, since we're at pic sharing, here's a new drawing by Chocolate Queen:

@ Tombow - I think I've seen that one before, but I like the old photo effect the person who uploaded it added, especially since both animes and the manga ended so long ago. It's kind of like looking back at an old photo album and remembering why we love all those character, Black Hayate absolutely included XD And thanks, i'm glad you liked it!

@ Michiyo - Thanks for sharing that new picture! And glad you liked my comic!

I'm going to picture dump just becuase I can and seeing this place dead makes me sad...
All the newest fan arts from dA!

Tombow--Ohhh! I have a booklet from anime1 with the original of that image in it! (They came with the DVDs.)

Michiyo---Gah, now I want to know what they're talking about!

RoyxRizaFan--Your little comic was really funny. And ooohhh! So much pretty fanarts!

Aha, thank you, everyone with the info on that pic of Roy gang!

@RoyxRizaFan - Awww, so much Royainess! Awesome! Thank you for that pic dump!! That brightened up my day!

@jacksparrow589 - Here is what Roy and Riza are saying in that pic... ^^

Tombow--Ah, thank you! Just based on the image, I wondered if it was something about the temperature.

I love the pictures <3

Has no one a question? I have one
When I woke up this morning I was thinking about my favorite scene in FMA (this is how you start a good day )
Anyway, what if Riza actually shot Roy? I know she said she would kill herself too but I don't think that would be the first thing she would do. And Ed and Scar are there too. I was just wondering what her very first reaction would be.

I know this is a very weird question. But it somehow came to my mind this morning xD

^ Riza would go.. "Oops, did I really do that? Now what am I going to do?! Stupid, me, stuuuupid!" *orz*

Nah.

If such a tragedy happened, I think Riza would probably try to die as a heroine/for others than commit suicide in a little corner. Or maybe she would think differently... trying to accomplish what Roy has failed to instead of killing herself.
But, boy... I'm glad nothing of the sort happened.
Just something I discovered : my friend, who is a die-hard FMA fan (I re-watched the very end of the anime at her house yesterday... in japanese and NOT butchered like it was on TV ... FMA french dub and cutting opening/ending suck *I mean, they also cut the last pictures of the anime/manga... so anyone who watch FMA on TV will totally miss the very last bit of the ending*), is also a big Royai fan. She's not interested in romance in general, but those 2 together, she loved them. It made me happy.

Responding to the question of @Puka-chan:

I think if she had shot Roy. She would continue the fight against the homunculus. However, in the end it would get very sad and would think about suicide. But I do not let her do the rest.

I have not been here. Bring a contribution that I liked more than anything because we have Roy and Riza raising a family ♥ n__n

Good morning, my sleepyhead...

Also bring a color version of one that had already shown, cost me a lot of work to finish, but finally succeeds.

Family portrait

Hey, Royai fans!

Our board is having a "Don’t Forget FMA" Event from Sept. 9 to Oct. 3. As usual, we have interesting activities you can take part in, like Dearheart’s Project Don’t Forget, or drawing fanarts, writing fanfics, making amvs/mmvs.
And, of course these fanworks can be Royai-related as well, so if you want to show your love for this couple, or Roy and Riza as individual characters, it’s time to submit your entries! All entries will be put into the Don’t Forget FMA Album!

You can find more info on the "Don’t Forget FMA" Event here, or just click on the banner in my sig.

Let’s celebrate the Don’t Forget FMA Day together!

I can't believe this thread fell to 2nd page!

Hmm, anyways I've finished my second fanmix.Covers belong to my friend hayaaateuh (as known in youtube as well) who I'm really grateful for.This time fanmix has 20 songs and they're mostly Muse.

Hope you'll like it!

LINK TO THE FANMIX

Hello to everyone again. I hope everyone has been well. I haven't checked in a while because of school and working 2 jobs.
I am disappointed I missed the "Don't Forget FMA Event." I was getting worried that I was drifting away from Fullmetal Alchemist and Royai. But then I went on tumblr, and yeah problem solved.

Also does anyone think its lame that I own the last three volumes of FMA but haven't read them yet because I don't want it to end again?

Also wonderful Royai fanart that was posted!

Merry Christmas everyone!

Long time no see ppl! I'm glad to see most of the royai fans are still here for the undying royai madness!

Is everyone working on the fanart/fanfic for the monthly theme?

Haven't posted for a while. Hope everyone had very happy Christmas/Hanukkah/Boxing Day or any other Winter holidays, and new year!

New FMA movie, FMA "Sacred Star of Milos" is finally coming to theaters around U.S., and hopefully we can post something related to Royai from the new movie soon.

Meanwhile, here is something from real life news:
There was an U.S. soldier killed in Afghanistan when the military helicopter he was on was hit by enemy fire on Aug. 6.
A funeral service was held in his hometown, attended by 1,500 people. During the funeral, his dog came into the funeral on his own, and laid besides the coffin of the fallen owner throughout the funeral.

And this loyal dog's name is..... Hawkeye. Awwwww, the name sounds so fitting!

You can read more on this here.

Tombow: I saw that article. The name is fitting for the dog. RIP to that soldier too.

Oh that's so sad about the owner, rest in peace The name for the dog is so fitting. I love it

We've been awfully quiet for a while o3o/ I miss talking to all of you! We should start doing our "question of the week" again! That was always fun!
